York.

Cardinal Jas. Gibbons, OF Baltimore, arrived at
New York Saturday on the Cunard steamer I'm.

corted up the bay by committee OF prominent
Catholics. The steamer was sighted on Fire
Island shortly after IL o'clock. Her flag was fly.

pilot on board, but the signal construed as In.
dcating death. As Cardinal Gibbons was known
to be the only distinguished passenger it was ru-
mored that he had died during the passage, but
inquiry at the office OF the Cunard Company soon
set this rumor at rest.

Friends of the Birds.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
The Pennsylvania State legislature has recently
passed two important bills relating to the birds of
that State one pertains to the repeal OF law, en-
acted less than fifteen months ago, by which a
bounty OF fifty cents to two dollars was paid for
the '.scalp" OF all the hawks owls, wolves, Wild
cats foxes minks and weasels, with two or three
exceptions, killed within the limits OF that CON-
mOnwealth.
Long-cOntinued observations, conducted by care
full persons, have verified that no other birds are
more beneficial to the agriculturist and nursery
man than the birds Of prey, which devour incredi-
to growing grain and young trees. In that length
OF time that State paid more than 500, 900 In
far soaps S
which the ingenuity Of two enterpriSing 1ndivfd-
ualS had passed as the genuine article" upon the
unsophsticated rustic magistrate. Besides these,
the heads OF the ruffed grouse and the nighthawk,
two birds having no more carnivorous propensity
than have the common barn-yard fowl and the
bat, were made to draw their proportion of a fund
which ignorance had created. 1t Is however, re-
fresning TO learn that the wise legislators OF that
State have taken the matter so early in hand be-
fore the great commonwealth should be Overrun
with hordeS OF mice, whose annual ravageS amount
to many times The price paid in bount1es for the
heads Of birds and manuals ignorantly classed as
nOx1ouS and destructive.
The second measure authorizes the prepare
ton for publication OF report on the birds OF
Pennsylvania, by Dr. B. II. Warren, the OrnithO-
logist Of the State board of agriculture. DR..
Warren has Investigated the food habits OF
the birds Of that State for a period OF many
years, and stands pre-eminent as an author
ity on that subject. To the zeal and persever-
ance OF Senator A. d. Harlan, OF Chester County,
Pa. the two laws were enacted with scarcely a
shadow of opposition. Such works, however
meager the information. are important factors in
teaching the characteristics OF that useful branch
OF natural history, audit is earnestly 10 be hoped
that other States will profit by the experience OF
Pennsylvania, and consider the propriety OF tssu-
ing under the auspices OF the respective State
boards OF agriculture. similar publications that
will have wide circulation among the people
mostly directly benefited by such knowledge.

HOW THE THISTLE WAS BEATEN.
In q Sixty Mile Race She Comes i'm n
Very bad Third.

A special to the New York Herald from Dover
says that by invitation OF Lord Alfred Paget, vice.
commodore OF the Royal Thames Yacht Club, the
correspondents OF the Herald and the London
7fmes-the only papers thus favored-accompa-
MED the club steamer in the Channel match from
the mouth OF the Thames TO Dorce Saturday. The
race was made in cruising TRIM from a flying
start with time allowances. the distance being
sixty miles. The start was at Oh SON.. with nine
entries. The impatient Genesta got away first
and this time according to rule-then the Irex and
the Thistle. As the wind was blowing light from
the northwest they had a clean run before 1t.
These three yachts each carried mainsail, balloon
~ ng e Ss1Toa ayss and PR
ing away, and leaving the eOb-tide to aid the
yachts, and sometimes coming in gusts.
MISTAKE ABOUT THE THISTLE.
almost abreast OF Margate the Irex was about
an equal distance ahead OF the Genesta and behind
the Thistle. Here the latters supposed superb
ority In a semi-calm, as claimed to be the case,
proved an error, for in short time she was astern
OF both the Others" Robert Hewitt, an old prac-
ucal yachtsman and recognized expert, said ;
'The Thistle is the finest boat and the worst sailed
ever saw In England. Unless she gets new sails
She will never win in America. Those now set are
too big for practical use" II was noticeable that
the Thistle's big topmast was too much for her
crew to handle. When the three yachts rounded
Goodwin Sands the wind was dead ahead, with a
fair sea They then had a dead beat to windward.
When passing the nght-ship, six miles from the
finish, the Irex was q half mile OF the Genestas
weather bow, but both were almost level. The
Thistle was then coming up fast behind.
THE BEST AT THE END.
It was a quarter past pm. before Admiralty
Pier, Dover-the base OF the finishing line--came
in sight This OF course put the race within short
limits. Nevertheless. here the prettest part OF it
and the best sailing Of the day were seen, particu-
larly as between the Genesta and the IreX. The
former seemed better sailed to-day than the latter.
On the last tack the GeneSta ran almost under the
white clifIS OF South Portland. Anexpert remarked
at this 1uncture: sIhe yachting logic Of this race
is that IL the GeneSta, beaten in America, can beat
the ThiStle-whether IL be by better model or bet
ter capabilities OF handling-where can any pres
tige OF the Thistle find place across the water?'
Soon the finish line was approached, and the
IreX and the GeneSta seemed likely 10 have dead
heat; but the finishing gun was fired for the Cen
eSta at 5h. 54m. 6S, and for the lreX at oh. 54m.
1885, while for the Thistle the time OF gunire was
5h. som. 39s. The Thistle takes part in another
Dover race to-day. and next In some leading con-
tests OF the MerSey.

eide DESCRIBES HIS DEED.


eide DESCRIBES HIS DEED.
The investigation into the crime committed by
Robert G. Hall, alias Barton. who. last Friday,
otherwise JAS W. Reynolds, actor and playwright,
in Philadelphia, was continued saturday by Coro-
ner Ashbridge. Hall is much improved, and the
physicians state that he may recover tie wound
in his throat not being as severe as at nrSt sup
posed. He fears he will recover, and has made
several desperate attempts TO tear open his
wounds. He has told his attendants that the au-
thorit1eS wanted to hang him, but that will never
be DONE as he will yet kill himself Hall made the
following remarkable statement: 81 am glad that
woman IS dead. She deserved 10 die for the man
ner in which she deceived me. When she entered
night and She said, why at Mrs. Snyder's house.
This angered me, and drawing a pistol,
/ fired two shots at her, both OF which took
effect, and she fell TO the floor. j then picked up
my throat, and fell from weakness. While lying
on the floor heard Lillian breathing, and very
determined that she should die, / dragged myself
over to where she was lying and cut her throat
me, and am glad that succeeded"
The self-confesSed murderer then turned over on
his side and went to sleep. Information received
from st. Louis, Mo-, where Hall formerly resided,
shows that he was married about ten years ago TO
Miss Lizzie Flood and afterward resided In Chi
cago About five years since he deserted his wife,
and she has since supported herself and her two
children by taking in washing. Hall followed the
stage as profession for some time. and then took
q hand at house painting in Philadelphia, where
he met the unfortunate Mrs. Rivers
Among other papers found by the coroner In
Halls bedroom was legal document dated New
York June lS 1885, which sets forth that Anna x.
Burton, nee butcher, illegal wife OF Root g. Bur-
band, and agrees to assume the custody Of their
1uegittmate son.

Hanlan returned to Toronto Saturday. He said
to the New York Times correspondent: cit was
the light boat used that caused my defeat this
week at Pullman. got left that way once before
right here on this bay, but I'll know better the
next time. My light boat could not stand the
heavy sea. was rowing under water much Of
the way I'll use heavier boat in my next race

Hanlan said he would row Beach, and figured

miles Is seconds faster than the Australian: Gau-
daurs friends say that Beach beat him on q mile
